  • Hi Jodierose and welcome to the forum.

    It's good you've spoken with your GP about this but as your lymph nodes are still swollen it would be best to get back in touch to update them on the situation and find out what happens next.

    Swollen glands and lymph nodes are quite a common talking point within the Cancer Chat community so hopefully some of our members will pick up on your post soon and offer their support and advice.

    Kind regards,
